Why the economic disorder due to Trump's tariff war will be difficult to undo

President Trump has made it clear that the incumbent global economic order was intended. And in 100 days he made remarkable progress in achieving this goal.

Mr. Trump has provoked a trade war, scraped contracts and suggested that Washington might not be able to defend Europe. He also dismantles the state infrastructure that has provided the know-how and experience.

The changes were deep. But the world still wakes up. In between elections in two years, the Republican majority could undermine the congress. And Mr. Trump's reign is commissioned constitutionally in four years. Could the next president come in and undo what the Trump government did?

When Cardinal Michael Czerny, a tight helper of Pope Francis, he said about the Catholic Church: “There is nothing that we did over 2,000 years that could not be rolled back.”

The same applies to global geopolitics. However, even at this early stage, historians and political scientists agree that the changes presented by Mr. Trump could difficult to undo in some decisive counts.

Like the erosion of trust in the United States, a resource whose structure was used.

“The Maga base and JD Vance will still have been lost for a long time,” said Ian Goldin, professor of globalization and development at the University of Oxford. No matter who takes up the White House next, the conditions that make the movement “Make America great again” – the inequality and economic uncertainty. There is still a concern for the rest of the world, he said that there could be “another Trump in the future”.
